Time Passed

Lives intertwined
Two bodies

What was once new is now aged,
fine like wine and cheese.

Ev’ry day, two artists who
go on painting.

Prompt: Write a Response Poem

(In response to Maya Angelou’s “Passing Time” below.)

Passing Time

Your skin like dawn
Mine like musk

One paints the beginning
of a certain end.

The other, the end of a
sure beginning.

~Maya Angelou
